PLANNING Things to consider when deciding to run a forage themed event: Will the event work within your existing business model?
Are there additional associated costs or can it be managed within existing budget?
How about collaborating with a local business? This could be an ideal time to join forces with a local foraging expert and link in with related crafts.
Decide how you wish to engage with one or more themes: wild foods, nature, crafts, health and wellbeing.
